What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
The checkboard loading pattern is not displaying correctly.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Select a license in the main menu.
Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
Yes, 5.0-11288
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
No, 5.0
If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)
5.0-1473 (https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/4514)
If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer
I attached two gif files before and after the regression.
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
i5-3230M
Intel HD 4000 (Note that I have tested this on other devices and with other GPUs as well, and also on other graphics backends, such as Vulkan, D3D, and OpenGL)
16 GB DDR3
Windows 10, Android, Ubuntu 18.04
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

I can confirm this bug as well. I always thought it was an issue with my graphics card / graphics settings, but apparently it isn't.

You know what that pattern reminds me off...?

I tested this again with the most recent version of Dolphin (5.0-13242) and the bug is still present, so even if it's a similar issue to 8059 it looks like the fix for that issue didn't fix this one in MKWii.

I can confirm that that fifolog renders correctly on hardware, so this is a rendering issue and not a CPU emulation issue. Unfortunately I tried to determine what's going on here and in #5197, and it seems like both of them involve an alpha value of 1 multiplied by a value of 0xff, which becomes 255/256. For Mario Kart Wii's menus, that needs to round to 1 so that the FMV in the background is drawn (though with massive transparency) and the depth buffer gets updated (which is what prevents the yellow texture from covering everything), but for Fortune Street it needs to round to 0 or else repeated blending of several rectangles in the same place results in increased brightness. I've confirmed that Mario Kart Wii does end up with an alpha value of 1. Unfortunately the Fortune Street test case doesn't work with the hardware fifoplayer (it experiences lots of vertex explosions), but as far as I can tell it acts like it rounds to 0 at least. But both Mario Kart Wii and Fortune Street have very similar configurations for drawing the relevant objects, so I don't know what would cause the difference.
